Early IGT - 04/12 - Pedro goes against The Nationals.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Nice catch, sez the radio.

I'll take their word for it. Side retired.

[Gwreck]

Howie and radio partner seem convinced that the Pedro-Guillen nonsense got into Armas' head causing him to lose his control on the Pedro at-bat.

Hernandez was rewarded by the baseball gods for his hard play, Guillen was punished for his big mouth.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Howie Rose just gave a really weird prenouciation of "Gustavo Chacin".
Chacacino?

[Gwreck]

Sounded like he pronounced it "Sha-sheen" (??)

Maybe I'm losing it. I should go dunk my head or something.

[Gwreck]

No, it was definetly weird. I thought correct pronunciation was "Chuh-keen"

[Gwreck]

3 Innings, 26 pitches. Thanks Pedro.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Tony Armas Jr. is not to be confused with Tony Armas when hitting.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Leadoff triple for David Wright.

Bring him home, Clifford

EDIT: Brought him home.

1-0 on a possible error by Vidro

EDIT2: Scored a hit. Cool.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Scored 1st in every game this year. Gotta like that.

[seawolf17]

A nice chorus of "Pedroooooooooooooo" greets Mr. Martinez when he comes to the plate.

Oh, wait, those were boos.

[Gwreck]

Oops. Oh well, 7004 (or something like that) and counting...

[seawolf17]

Vidro ties it with a solo HR to "deep right."

[Gwreck]

Carlos and Carlos get us the lead back with a single and and RBI double.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Huuuuge double play.

Pedro gets out of a bases loaded, 0 out situation. The world breathes easy again.

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

I've been watching from away from the PC. Loved the double play. Gonna give some props to Hernandez for the way he turned it.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Oh my god, I love Pedro.

That was fucking unreal.

Anderson Hernandez, too. Holy shit.

That one deserves a picture.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Uh-oh. Braden Looper has entered the thread.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Yeah, I hope Matsui gets back and gets it going, but that was a great, fast, atheltic turn by Handy Andy Hernandy. He showed some real agility and got rid of it with a quick, strong throw. Super bad-ass.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Petey's looking good out there. Beltran looking just as good, tracking down a LONG fly ball from Nick Johnson.

Gary & Ron talking about Beltran staying within his game more this year so far, and that being good news for the Mets.

Gotta say I agree so far.

[Elster88]

This Nationals team does not field well.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Stupid play by Jackson, no?

We're getting all the breaks right now.

[Guest Rotblatt]

What happened? Girlfriend's watching Veronica Mars now.

sigh.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Jackson playing third base, bouncer close to the line, not real well hit, Jackson approaches it and seems to decide at the last second it's a foul so he pulls his glove away and it goes down the line.

Blue called it fair, Wright has a cheap double.

It was fair, looks like.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Why'd they take Zimmerman out?

Oh, double switch.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Cliff smokes a liner into Johnson's glove. That;'s how it goes when you're struggling.

Nady being intentionally walked to get to Andy Hernandez.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Diving grab by Nick Johnson, says the radio. I guess they can field.

[Gwreck]

Heilman warming up, speculation on radio is Heilman 8th, Sanchez 9th or Heilman for 2 innings.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Petey only at 85 pitches.

Do you pinch hit for Andy? Have Andy bunt and pinch hit for Petey?
